.1.3. BRENNAN OVERFLOW PAN FOR GRIDS Filed Nov. 17, 1922 2 Slnecs-Sheei'I 2 CII of the overflow pan, the rest of the pan being similar to those previously described. The grid 22 seats within the aperture provided by the overflow pan. This construction is adapted to be employed wherever the stove top is manufactured as a complete and distinct entity. The other forms, however, may be applied to existing types of stoves, if so desired, or may be separately supplied to stove dealers. l

It will thus be seen that an overflow pan has been provided which catches and conducts any spilled liquid away from the burner and thereby prevents extinguishing of the flame and clogging of the burner, as has heretofore frequently been the case.

`Although a few forms of the invention have been described in considerable detail, it is to be understood that the invention is to be limited only as set forth in the appended claim. f

I claim:

The, combination of a stove having an apertured top, a burner located below said top, an overflow pan removably positioned within said aperture and having an annular flange at its upper edge supported by said top, said pan having upwardly extending walls merging into said flange and having an upwardly bulged frusto conical bottom having a large central aperture above said burner and a series of apertures adjacent the outer portion of said bottom, and a grid carriedvby said stove top and extending across the aperture in said stove top and adapted to support a utensil.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand at Milwaukee, y

in the county of Milwaukee and State of Wisconsin.

JOHN S. BRENNAN.
